Fetterman Sent to the Hospital Following Car Accident in Maryland

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) was knocked around and sent to the hospital on Sunday morning he rear ended another car while behind the wheel, reports said.

Fetterman and his wife Gisele were traveling near Hancock, Maryland, when the car Fetterman was driving smashed into a Chevy Impala, according to Fox 29 Philadelphia.

The couple was then transported to a hospital in West Virginia “out of an abundance of caution,” according to a statement from Fetterman’s office shared with the station.

Fetterman was treated for a bruised shoulder at the hospital. He and his wife were discharged later in the day and are now back in their hometown of Braddock, Pennsylvania, according to the senator’s office.

The Senator’s health has been a persistent question throughout his tenure, following a stroke during his 2022 campaign that left him unable to speak for a period of time. Shortly after he returned to public life following his stroke, he again stepped back from his role in the Senate to seek clinical treatment for depression.
